Animal lovers can find exciting careers as horse trainers and groomers, dog trainers, animal show handlers, veterinary assistants, wildlife guides, park rangers, and more. The author discusses the special aptitudes animal handlers must have and tells readers how to make crucial contacts that lead to employment in these fields. Titles in the practical and enlightening Success Without College series guide ambitious young men and women toward satisfying and well-paying careers in fields where a college degree is not required. However, all occupations described do require specialized training, either on the job or in technical or vocational classroom settings. Readers learn how and where to get that training, then find out how to get started on the highway to career success.
